Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

The snow crate (Rust Noise Protocol implementation) before 0.9.5 has a logic bug where unauthenticated payloads can still increment the nonce in its internal state. An attacker who can inject packets into the channel carrying the Noise session could use garbage data to cause a denial of service and prevent message delivery. Only users of the stateful TransportState are affected, not StatelessTransportState. Upgrade to snow 0.9.5.
